A dental crown will enhance the appearance of a damaged tooth, and more importantly restore the tooth’s natural function. Your crown will enable you to bite down, chew and speak naturally. Some say that the aesthetics of a posterior second molar crown is of little importance, we believe that every new tooth should be made to look, feel and function optimally.
Missing teeth can make it difficult to smile without embarrassment or chew without pain. If missing teeth are not promptly treated, they can cause your remaining teeth to shift and become crooked. Dental bridges are an excellent solution to replace missing teeth with an aesthetically attractive, durable and functional result.
With a dental bridge, your existing teeth are used as anchors. The dental bridge fills in the gap caused by missing teeth. Dental bridges can be composed of various materials, including porcelain and zirconia.
Getting used to your dental bridge takes only a few days. It’s advised to eat soft foods for the day or two after your procedure. Within a fortnight, you will return to eating normally, speaking with ease and smiling with confidence.
